Dynamics of the Lamellar-Cylindrical Transition in Weakly Segregated Diblock Copolymer Melts
We investigate the dynamics of the lamellar-cylindrical transition in weakly segregated diblock copolymer melts. We find the limit of stability of the lamellar phase with respect to the cylindrical phase and vice versa. We consider front propagation for stable phases invading metastable phases and compute the velocity and shape of such fronts close to coexistence.
